More than four years after Jamie Zawinski wrote about dealing with large volume of messages by aggressively exploiting their relationship to one another (expressed in their "metadata" and data), several new promising programs in the category of PIM or personal information manager are appearing. ZOË is hailed as Google for email for surfacing out all kinds of relevant information about a given email. Spaces tries to connect email, calendar, tasks and notes by providing multiple views on them. Mitch Kapor, famous for Lotus 1-2-3, is also designing Chandler as an inter-personal information manager - sharing information with other users is its primary design goal. Kapor is also known for Agenda, a pioneering PIM from 1980s.
